An Original Six rivalry returns to Little Caesars Arena with both teams arriving on winning notes. The Red Wings sit on a W-L-W run, capped by a 4-3 win in Edmonton two nights before this one, while Chicago's W-L-L stretch ended on a high with a 2-1 home win over Los Angeles.

The head-to-head record tilts heavily toward the home side. GUIDE-STAT: Last 7 meetings: Detroit Red Wings 6W, 0D, Chicago Blackhawks 1W. Detroit took the most recent meeting 4-0 in Chicago in December, but the Blackhawks' lone win in that span came in this very building — a 5-1 rout in November 2025 — proof the visitors can flip the script here.

Watchlist
  • Whether Detroit can make it two straight victories after the 4-3 win in Edmonton.
  • Whether Chicago can build on that 2-1 win over Los Angeles and carry the momentum on the road.
  • Whether the margin stays thin — 3 of the last 7 meetings were decided by two goals or fewer.
